The EAA is enforced now. Is your product ready?
Since 28 June 2025, consumer apps, websites and self-service kiosks in the EU must be accessible. Our accessibility audit shows where you stand against WCAG 2.1 AA, then we fix what matters first and design new screens to pass.
- WCAG 2.1 AA
- the level apps and websites must meet
- EN 301 549
- the European standard behind it
- 27
- member states, each enforcing it
- 2030
- when the last transition ends
If EU consumers use it to buy, bank, travel or connect, it's likely in scope.
E-commerce
Online shops and marketplaces selling to consumers in the EU, on the web and in apps.
Banking and payments
Banking apps, payment services, and the ATMs and payment terminals behind them.
Transport and ticketing
Booking, ticketing, check-in and live travel information, on screens and at the station.
Self-service kiosks
ATMs, ticketing and check-in machines put into use after 28 June 2025.
Telecom and media
Electronic communications services and the devices and apps used to reach them.
E-books
E-books and the software used to read them.
Companies outside the EU, including in Türkiye, are covered when they serve EU consumers.
Does it apply to you?
01Do consumers in the EU use your product or service?
A pointer, not a legal answer.
The deadline passed. Enforcement is the part that's starting now.
- 28 June 2025In force
New products and services in scope must be accessible from day one.
- Nov 2025First court cases
France takes large retailers to court for inaccessible online shops.
- 2026WE ARE HEREAudits across the EU
The Netherlands prioritises companies that didn't report; Germany steps up audits.
- 28 June 2030Transition ends
Services still running on products in use before June 2025 must be accessible too.
One kiosk screen, four of the people in front of it.
The Zes charging kiosk, as we designed it: three large choices, one instruction, nothing to scroll.
A simulation to show the idea, not a test. The real check uses people and assistive tech.
A product everyone can use, and a statement that says how.
WCAG 2.1 AA, through EN 301 549
The European standard the EAA relies on. For apps and websites it means WCAG 2.1 level AA: contrast, keyboard and screen-reader use, clear structure, captions, forms people can complete.
An accessibility statement
A public statement of how your service meets the requirements, where it doesn't yet, and how people can reach you when something blocks them.
Kiosks: software and hardware
EN 301 549 adds hardware points for terminals, such as tactile and audio output. We design and build the interface; the device maker covers the hardware.
One week to know exactly where you stand.
- DAY 1Scope and scan
We agree the key journeys; Corexi runs the automated pass, so senior time goes where people get stuck.
- DAY 2–3Expert review
A senior designer goes through every screen by hand: screen readers (VoiceOver, TalkBack), keyboard, zoom and contrast.
- DAY 4Ranked findings
Every issue mapped to its WCAG criterion, ranked by legal risk and by how many people it blocks.
- DAY 5Walkthrough
We walk your team through the fix plan and hand over a draft accessibility statement.
- ✓Up to three key journeys on one platform, about 20 screens
- ✓Every issue with its WCAG 2.1 AA criterion and where it happens
- ✓A fix plan ranked by legal risk and user impact
- ✓A draft accessibility statement for your site or app
- ✓A 60-minute walkthrough with your team
More platforms, a kiosk or a larger product? Quoted after a 20-minute call. The fixes that follow are a fixed-price project, and a Product Partnership keeps every release accessible.
Book a Compliance Check →We design the kiosks drivers use at Zes and Electrip stations and Revolut's first ATM, so we know the screen, the hardware and the person in front of it. We make products that meet these rules. For the legal reading, we work alongside your counsel.
Two free tools of ours.
Does the EAA apply to us?+
If you sell products or services in its scope to consumers in the EU, almost certainly. Microenterprises (fewer than 10 people and no more than €2M turnover or balance sheet) are exempt from the service obligations. Companies outside the EU, including in Türkiye, are covered when they serve EU consumers.
What was the deadline?+
28 June 2025. National authorities are enforcing it in 2026: France has taken large retailers to court, and the Netherlands and Germany are stepping up audits. Services still running on products in use before that date have until 28 June 2030.
Is an accessibility widget enough?+
No. A widget adds preferences on top of a page; it doesn't fix structure, contrast, focus order or labels in the product itself. We offer a free one, blurple access, and we say this openly.
What does the Compliance Check cost, and what if we're bigger?+
from €1,900 covers up to three key journeys on one platform (about 20 screens) in one week. More platforms, a kiosk or a larger product are quoted after a short call.
Do you give legal advice?+
No. We make products that meet the requirements and document how. For the legal reading, we work alongside your counsel.
